Boxing Day Bash......

[Valaas]

Morning all,

Which fellow Raven's, Raptors et al are joining me in the Bolter and Chainsword Boxing Day Bash this year....

http://www.bolterandchainsword.com/topic/341652-the-boxing-day-bash-2017-approaches/

Straight forward challenge, build and paint one or more models on the 26th of December.

I have the bits ready for my planned conversion for a Raven Guard Chaplin ready to rock.

Join in the fun and help raise the profile of the Raven Guard forums

Cheers,

Valaas

I hear you there. Working in a company that supports retail, the day after Christmas is mandatory for me 

 

Good luck to those that participate!

What is Boxing Day? I know its a British thing on the 26th but what are you celebrating?

Hrmmm I could be down for this

1 model is doable! ;)

2 children out from school, and even with me on vacation I cannot do this.

 

Actually, I never have done Boxing Day Bash :cry:

This is tempting. If the Pathfinder game goes south, I might be able to do this.

It was originally the day that the servants of wealthy families celebrated Christmas.

 

Since they were busy serving during the family's celebration, their gifts were placed in a box to be opened the next day.

 

I'm not British, though, so I might be missing some details.

Boxing day = day after Christmas public holiday! :D

 

Except here in the states. :(

[MajorNese]

Depending on how quick I am with the currently basecoated models (for the game next day), I might participate. Either a grav-cannon dev (rather uninspiring, but needs to get done) or a dev sergeant (more options).

Had to step away from the Bash, my Raptors were busy investigating suspicious adeptus mechanicus activity. Turns out it was none other than Belisarius Cawl on a secret mission to recover some arcane tech. Even though, neither forces could claim the relic (I say my Ironclad stomped on it in a last effort before being blown to pieces) the Raptors have been badly mauled... Again!

Congrats Guys!

[Race Bannon]

Yay, victory. And the grav devs I finished on the event served me well on yesterday's game.
